Is anyone making a LR3 Rear Bumper?

I saw some pictures of a rte version...but I don't think it ever made it to production.

Man-A-Fre is a Kaymar distributor, I know they specialize in Toyota, but give em a call maybe they will bring in a LR3 bumper.

I have no idea why Aluminess feels the need to make everything so damn big. I feel like they completely ignore the design of the vehicle and just blindly stick things together. A 2x4 would look better than that.

just my opinion, but welding together straight, angular pieces of steel isn't going to suffice any more for modern vehicle designs. The aftermarket needs to be exploring more alternatives using reinforced composites that incorporate some kind of metallic rub-rail where the piece is most likely to see frequent abrasion against terrain, and be lightweight yet sturdier to impact than the stock component.

in other words: I think all these steel bumpers for the LR3 look like doo-doo. The market I believe is ripe for someone that has their stuff together in the composites industry.

Getting ready to have one fabricated (similar to the Rasta version) to work with my OE rear bumper. I'll post pics when it's complete.
